Product Overview
The Champ Turbo BP features a durable steel pole constructed of 4" square tubing with 11-gauge wall thickness and black powder coat finish, installed via an anchoring system with a 3/8" thick baseplate and four welded support gussets. The adjustable extension arm assembly, made of 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" tubing, maintains a minimum 18" distance from post to backboard face and includes a spring mechanism to counteract equipment weight, enabling single-person height adjustments.
The backboard is 1/4" thick clear tempered glass with dimensions of approximately 54" wide by 36" high, featuring bright white ceramic markings fired into the glass and a clear anodized aluminum framework. The flexible institutional-quality rim features an official 5/8" diameter ring with an 18" I.D. opening and orange powder coat finish, paired with a heavy-duty nylon net.
Height adjustment operates in six-inch increments from 10' down to 7 1/2' using a pole or broom handle to release the adjustment mechanism, with an easy-to-read label for height registration. The complete system weighs approximately 280 pounds and includes a Lifetime Limited Warranty covering the pole, backboard, and standard rim.
